Once again, a collection of commercials that, individually, can be seen in the archive elsewhere. Still, it's nice to see some of these again, especially the aurora stunt track one, which has a certain charm with the music, editing and kids. You might want to look at these, and then, if there's a commercial you want, you can go to the individual file and yank it from there... Saves ya the editing ;)
